I'm what you'd call a living jukebox, and I pride myself on having something up my sleeve that everyone at your party will enjoy - be it stellar movie soundtracks, broadway showtunes, oldies but goodies, classic love songs from the 20s, 30s, 40s, and 50s, your favorite rock songs, your kids' favorite top 40 hits, and much more. I play background music without vocals.
I'm a full-time social worker (Master's level) who is working towards a second degree in music performance on piano. Because I am para-professional, I charge highly competitive rates in accordance with my skill level.
I WILL NOT TRAVEL BEYOND NEW YORK CITY, despite what my below travel distance states. (If the subway goes there, I'm willing to go there.)
For a performer, I'm incredibly low maintenance. All I require is a piano and a bench. If the piano is an electric / synthesizer, you need to set up all the appropriate equipment. If I show up and the piano does not physically work, then you owe me the full price of the gig. If the piano is out of tune, I will still perform, but the quality of the performance will be impacted.

Don't Cry for me, Argentina (from Evita)
